A soft touch at Christmas

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

Christmas Day is so close that we can practically taste the turkey! When the bird comes out of the oven and onto the Christmas table, we usually let Mr Gifts do the carving. Then we steal all of the best roast potatoes whilst he’s not looking. It’s ever so funny, although it’s probably best not to annoy Mr Gifts whilst he’s holding a carving knife.

This year at All Things Gifts we’re going to soften up the hubbie before the festivities commence with a lovely soft toy. Soft toys make wonderful Christmas presents for girls and boys of all ages. If you’re looking for a Christmas gift for her or a Christmas gift for him, look no further. Here are some lovely snuggly toy ideas for you.

All Things Gifts is very pleased and excited to announce the arrival of two supersized NICI collectables. Jack the Winter Husky Dangling Soft Toy and Jill the Winter Husky Dangling Soft Toy (we like to think they are boyfriend and girlfriend – aren’t we soppy) are two huge toys that will melt anybody’s heart this Christmas. Because of their size, they are best positioned sitting upright. Just like Mr Gifts!

Here’s another adorable Christmas present for her: Me To You Bears Tatty Teddy Xmas Slippers, available in sizes 5 to 7. These are gorgeous – ever so soft and Christmassy, with little Santa hats on the little bear heads. We’d get some for Daughter Gifts, but she’s got huge feet – size 15 flippers like her father. Such a shame. Happy shopping!

Tree-mendous Christmas gifts for him and her

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

Here at All Things Gifts, we are practically exploding with excitement. We can actually count on four hands the number of days left until Christmas Day. Yippee! There is officially no time to mess around any more. Have you bought those Christmas presents for her and those Christmas gifts for him yet?

We are feeling particularly festive because we decorated our tree this weekend. Well, I say “we” – Mr Gifts put his back out trying to hang chocolate coins on our tree’s top branches. It was left to muggins here to climb the stepladder and sort out the fairy on top of the Christmas tree while Mr Gifts sat in the armchair moaning and uttering the odd swear word.

This week, we’re going to show you some lovely Christmas tree themed presents that you’ll love using. In fact, they’re so cute that they would make excellent gifts and presents for yourself as well as your loved ones.

Me To You Bears Tatty Teddy Set of Four Christmas Tree Decorations is an adorable addition to any Christmas tree. Look at those little bears dressed up as Santa Claus! This is a super present for Me To You Bears collectors as well as general fans of Christmas trees.

How’s this for modern technology? This fabulous USB Desktop Flashing Colour Changing Christmas Tree allows office workers to add a festive touch to their desk at Christmas. Plug this little tree into the computer and its colour will rotate from red to blue to green.

Christmas present ideas

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

The weather is freezing, the nights are long and dark, mince pies seem to be taking over our local supermarket and London’s famous Regent Street Christmas lights have been switched on. Yay, it’s officially nearly Christmas! And, most importantly, it’s definitely time to start doing your Christmas present shopping.

Why get shoved and pushed around in the crowds at the shops when you can stay at home and find loads of Christmas gift ideas here on All Things Gifts? Put your feet up, make yourself a hot chocolate and browse our gift ideas for boys and girls of all ages. In fact, start off by treating yourself to a little Christmas something – this gorgeous NICI Jill The Winter Husky mug to hold said hot chocolate! Its cute husky picture will certainly make you feel Christmassy.

We’ll be taking you through some wonderful Christmas present ideas in the next few weeks, whether that’s present ideas for girls or gift ideas for boys. We’ve got stocking fillers aplenty as well as larger gifts for your lucky loved ones. Something that you need to buy first of all is this Me To You Bear ‘Tatty Teddy 3D Tree Advent Calendar’ which is a must for the countdown to Christmas.

Because it’s not filled, you can fill the contents with your own gifts, which gives a really special and personalised touch. Every day, select the correct box, pull it out, remove the contents and then turn the box around. By the time you get to Christmas, a mystery picture is revealed. How exciting!

Trick or treat toys

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Woooo! There are some spooky goings-on afoot this week, and we don’t mean John and Edward’s continued success in the X Factor (a mystery for us, a Christmas and birthday present wrapped into one for them). Nope, it’s Halloween! The scariest occasion on the calendar, it’s the horrible holiday that will send shivers down your spine. People across the world will be dressed as Dracula, witches or Simon Cowell whilst little children will be trick or treating for presents, toys and gifts. Dare you celebrate, or will you hide behind the sofa like a toddler trying to watch Dr Who?

Here at All Things Gifts, we can’t wait to celebrate Halloween. We’ve got lots of fun toys and gifts to help the night go with a bang… and a scream! Now, if you thought that the Me to You Bears were too sweet and innocent to get involved in all of this spooky stuff, you are mistaken. Our Me To You Bears Trick or Treat Tatty Teddy Figurine is dressed in a black outfit complete with glow in the dark skeleton bones! He’s just like an emo-loving teenager (and would make a great gift for one). What a top Halloween toy!

Our rubber duckies are joining in for the occasion as well. Check out this Luxury Spooky Bath BUD Rubber Duck – his black colour is decorated with Halloweeny symbols. He’s guaranteed to send you quackers on the most frightening night of the year. Dare you take a bath with this toy?

Gift ideas for the big 5-0

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

What do you give the man who’s got everything for his 50th birthday? If the man is Simon Cowell, the music guru and X Factor überjudge, then the answer’s a bit surprising – teeth whitener.

That’s what fellow X Factor judge the gorgeous Cheryl Cole has got planned for Le Cowell anyway. Super Simon turns 50 on 7 October 2009 and Cheryl – who knows a thing or two about bright white teeth herself – joked to Hello! Magazine that she’s going to buy her boss some teeth bleach whitener for his birthday!

Cheryl will have to get in the queue to give Si his pressie. Here at All Things Gifts, we’re bursting to give him a birthday hug. And there’s lots of things on the site to give a handsome 50 year old too.

If your fittie is turning 50, treat him to this Me to You Bear Tatty Teddy. This soft toy and collectors’ item is a real cutie with a sense of occasion. In fact, he’s been made especially to celebrate the big 5-0.

For fussy fifties, a gift voucher makes a superb gift. And what better amount to give than £50? Our handy £50 gift voucher will let any birthday boy or girl celebrate the start of their fifth decade in style.

Ooh – and don’t forget one of our lovely birthday cards and a great big birthday cuddle.

Me to You Bears – three new product lines

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

We’re very excited to announce three fantastic additions to our Me to You range. Made by the well-known company Carte Blanche Greetings, Me to You Bears originated from a story about a brown bear which was left behind and when it snowed got so cold its nose turned blue and fur turned grey but was eventually found by a little girl who loved and looked after the teddy bear. Some of the earliest tatty teddy soft toy releases actually enclosed a copy of this story, but as you’ll see the range has expanded considerably in modern times.

For August, we have three new product lines in the Me to You range.

1)    Figurines
Making great gifts for birthdays, Christmas, Easter, Mothers Day, Fathers day and all other occasions, Me to You figurines are available in the form of snowglobes, dressed up characters – and even bears relaxing on sunloungers. Very appropriate for summer!

2)    Summer travel
Speaking of summer, check out the Me to You summer travel range. New for 2009, this range offers a huge collection of summer holiday items, from passport cover to keyrings to travel diaries.

3)    Back to School
The kids might not want to think about this until later in the month but as every parent knows, it’s best to stock up early. That’s particularly true of these gorgeous stationery sets and school supplies – all adorned with images of the friendly Me to You Bears.

Take a look at the updated Me to You Bears category at All Things Gifts. We think you’ll be delighted with what’s on offer.
